Bone: The Great Cow Race

Bone: The Great Cow Race is the direct continuation of Bone: Out from Boneville. I also want to state that I am not familiar at all with the source material. The story takes off where the previous game ended, you reach Barrelhaven for the annual fair and cow race. Fone is trying to impress Thorn, which honestly was the weakest part of the game, while Phoney and Smiley are up to something more mischievous... at the same time the dangers from the previous game is still lurking in the shadows! The gameplay is more of the same from the previous game, with simple point n click mechanics and the odd minigame here and there. One big change, which I did appreciate, was that you could change between the Bone cousins at any time given. There's no real parts you could fail, so thankfully you're given several tries if you were not to succeed. If you enjoyed the first game, this is definitely recommended to play as it is longer, more well-developed and overall better (minus Fone's parts, I felt he didn't really fit in much as all he did was being mopey and sad over Thorn). As this game ends on a cliff hanger, it is very sad that TellTale never made more games in the series. From what I understand a total of 5 episodes were originally ordered but they never appeared. Eventually they also lost the license for the IP. I suppose if you want to find out what happens to Fone Bone and his cousins you'll have to read the comics!
